The Italian sports car of London bars, Radio derives its name from its location. The Art Deco edifice in Aldwych once referred to as Marconi House, where the first BBC programming was transmitted in 1922, now houses the achingly cool ME Hotel. 10 storeys up at its summit, you'll find the sleek, chic and streamlined Radio bar. Having drinks at this site is worth the splurge, if for the sights alone. With intense panoramic vistas of London's landmarks including the Oxo Tower, The Shard, St Paul's Cathedral, the London Eye, into Somerset House, the BT Tower and beyond, it holds punches as one of London's superior roof terraces. The bar's historic theme extends to its cocktail menu with aptly named concoctions including the Radio-Active and AM/FM, calibrated to get you on the right wavelength. Quickly becoming the foremost destination for al fresco cocktails during pleasant weather, Radio is definitely worth a ride in the lift!
